Matera Canvas – 239 W Broadway, New York, NY 10013

Sylvan Lawrence Co (real estate) -241 Church Street, New York, NY

Sylvan Lawrence Co?  A real estate company.

The reason I put this up is because it has the classic 7 digit code which assumed 212 in new york.  That assumption went away many years ago so this is worthy of asking about its history.

Algoquin – 860 Broadway, New York, NY

This is a tw0’fer and tricky.  There are two images in one.  The word “Algoquin” has been painted over something that is “A….” “F…” “Holiday”.
